This cake lasts well for 3-4 days in an airtight container.
Dusting the chocolate chips with the flour prevents them from sinking to the bottom of the pan. Also, once they are folded in , pour batter immediately into pan and bake soon so that they dont have a chance to sink!
To make this cake vegan, use soy milk or almond milk instead.
The cake isnt too sweet but the chocolate chips take care of that.
You could skip the chocolate chips , but consider increasing the sugar by couple of tablespoons.
